Light Bulb! Despicable Me Nail Art

I LOVE DESPICABLE ME!! The minions are so cute, I just had to try them out!

Colours - 

1. Revlon Clear base coat
2. LA Colors Yellow "Shock"
3. LA Colors Blue "Static Electricity" (matched as closely to the colour of their dungarees) 
4. LA Colors Black
5. LA Colors White

Method - 

1. Start out with a base coat, really important if like me you are painting your nails very regularly as it helps to protect them otherwise they tend to become brittle and yellowy. 
2. Next a layer of yellow, I used quite a warm shade of yellow so not too radioactive bright, its LA Colors "shock"
3. Once the yellow has dried you want to paint the the first third of the nail blue for the dungarees. You can leave yellow at the sides of the tip if you want to give him arms. 
4. Again once the blue is dry you want to add the detail, which is actually really simple, using a dotting tool and a thin detailing brush. Dotting tool dipped first in black and again in white will create the glasses and the detail brush will add the frames, hair and the mouth. You can varying the number of eyes and style of hair for different minions. Different pupil positioning and expressions make each of the nails individual.
5. Seal your design once it is dry with a clear top coat, this will also cover up any mistakes or rough patches.
